    Information

    AIMS

    Emory-at-Oxford is a Lower Division unit of the College of Arts and Sciencesof Emory University. After the first two college years have been successfullycompleted at Oxford, students may transfer to Emory's Atlanta campus andthere enroll in the Upper Division of the College or in an Emory professionalschool which requires only two years of preprofessional college work.

    Emory-at-Oxford offers a unified and coherent program with emphasis on basicliberal arts for all students. The objective of this program is to provide studentswith the knowledge and perspectives of intellectually aware, disciplined and dis¬criminating adults. Emory-at-Oxford believes that this aim can best be achievedin an atmosphere of intellectual honesty, freedom, and trust.

    The institution strives to provide for the religious dimension of life. A seriouscollege experience inevitably will include questions concerning beliefs, loyalties,and values. The college welcomes honest inquiry in an intellectually permissiveatmosphere, without evasion or sectarianism.

    Emory-at-Oxford expects to continue as a small campus community with aratio of one faculty person to approximately 15 students. Friendly associationwith the faculty provides the student with personal guidance and intellectual stim¬ulation. In this atmosphere of mutual confidence and understanding, the collegeexpects an attitude of responsibility and honorable intention from the student.

    Studies, extracurricular activities, and social relationships are designed to giveopportunities for self-expression and development of individual talents. Regula¬tions are necessary to support the aims of the college and the order of the com¬munity, but the college experience far exceeds definition by rules. Honorableconduct is sought in all relationships, and growth in sensitivity, self-discipline andresponsibility is a constant aim of campus life.

    PROGRAMS OF STUDY

    Emory-at-Oxford offers programs for students who have completed two, three,or four years of high school work. Those who have completed two years of highschool enter the Four-Year Program; those who have completed three years ofhigh school enter the Extended Program; high school graduates enter the Two-Year Program. All courses are taught by the one college faculty, and studentsshowing superior achievement are enrolled according to their abilities and fur¬ther academic intentions. Graduation from Emory-at-Oxford ordinarily is fol¬lowed by matriculation in the Upper Division of the University or in one of the

    [9]

  • professional schools. The divisions of the University are described on the insidefront cover of this Bulletin.

    The Four-Year Program is in keeping with two widespread practices in con¬temporary education. Many leading universities are granting early admission(without graduation from high school) to students of exceptional promise, andmany outstanding high schools are providing programs for the advanced place¬ment of students of high achievement. In admitting students of such promise andachievement after two years of high school, Emory-at-Oxford combines the op¬portunities of these two practices and allows the student to begin higher educa¬tion at age 16, when full mental age is being reached. Work during the first twoyears, even when identical with two-year curriculum courses, carries no formalcollege credit, and a student leaving Oxford after two years has no Universitycredit to transfer.

    In the third year of the program, however, commendable progress permitssome acceleration; the student may finish the lower division a quarter or twoearly and thus be admitted to the Upper Division before four full years haveelapsed. Eligibility for this acceleration requires the passing of examinations inthe contents of Mathematics 100 and English 100, at least a C average in eachfield of study, and at least a C in the terminal course in foreign language. Appli¬cation for acceleration should be made during the student's seventh quarter,which is the beginning of his third year.

    The Extended Program is strictly an early admission procedure by which ablehigh school seniors begin college work at the same time they are finishing studiesequivalent to their secondary school requirements. Seven quarters are usuallynecessary for these students to graduate from Emory-at-Oxford. Any accelerationis by virtue of continued success in accomplishing additional studies.

    Particular attention is directed to the numerous elective courses which areavailable for the enrichment of the studies of students in the Four-Year Programand the Extended Program.

    The Two-Year Program is the regular lower division curriculum of the Univer¬sity as followed at Emory-at-Oxford.

    LOCATIONThe Oxford campus is situated one mile north of Covington, Georgia, and onehour (35 miles) east of Atlanta on Georgia Highway 81, just off U. S. Highway278. Transportation by bus or railroad is available to Covington. The commu¬nity and college post office is Oxford, Georgia, and the historic campus includes60 acres. Situated within the suburban area of metropolitan Atlanta, Emory-at-Oxford offers a quiet and healthful atmosphere which is ideal for the tasks of aserious college program.

    HISTORY

    Emory College, out of which the University grew, was founded at Oxford in 1836by the Georgia Methodist Conference. Emory University was chartered in1915 and transferred the major portion of its activities to the Atlanta campusin 1919. The original home campus at Oxford then became the University'sEmory-at-Oxford division, which gradually developed its present distinctive pro¬grams. Over more than 120 years, therefore, thousands of men have made their

    [10]

  • college home at Oxford, and its roster of alumni includes many who have madememorable achievements in many fields of endeavor. Dormitory housing forwomen students was first provided in 1955. Emory-at-Oxford combines to anunusual extent the old, symbolized by her historic buildings and living traditions,and the new, as in her university affiliation and modern programs of study.

    ACCREDITATION AND AFFILIATIONFully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schoolsas a four-year junior college and by the State of Georgia, Emory-at-Oxford alsohas membership in the Georgia Association of Colleges and the American Asso¬ciation of Junior Colleges. Emory University is a service of the MethodistChurch, and the Oxford division retains particularly intimate ties with the Northand South Georgia conferences. Emory-at-Oxford is also affiliated with, andaccredited by, the University Senate of the Methodist Church.

    BUILDINGSSeventeen buildings, plus three faculty residences, compose the facilities atEmory-at-Oxford. There are also an athletic field and seven tennis courts.

Persons desiring summer quarter ma¬triculation in Emory University are referred to the Summer Quarter Bulletin,which may be obtained by writing the Registrar, Emory University, Atlanta 22,Georgia.

    ADMISSION REQUIREMENTSAn applicant may be admitted most advantageously at the opening of the fallquarter, and students in the four-year program must enter at this time. Appli¬cants for the two-year program and the extended program may be admitted alsoat the opening of the winter and spring quarters, provided a desirable scheduleof classes can be arranged. The dates of opening of each quarter are given in theAcademic Calendar. All applicants for admission must take the Scholastic Apti¬tude Test (Morning Program) given by the College Entrance ExaminationBoard. No special preparation is required for the test, and scores achieved willbe among several items considered for admission. Application form and bulletinof information (including description of tests, dates, and lists of testing centers)may be obtained from the College Entrance Examination Board, Box 592,Princeton, New Jersey.

    For admission to the four-year program, a transcript must be presented; itmust be signed by the principal of an accredited high school and show comple¬tion with superior performance of eight units (the first two years) of high schoolwork. Admission to the extended program requires a similar transcript showingcompletion of three years of superior high school work. Prospective students whohave completed four years of high school with not less than 16 acceptable unitspresent certificates of their graduation from high school. All applicants shouldhave transcripts of previous work, signed by an official of the school, sent forevaluation as far in advance of actual registration as possible. Formal applicationmust be made on a blank which may be obtained from the Registrar, Emory-at-Oxford, Oxford, Georgia. A report of a physical examination is required, anda blank for this report will be furnished.

    For admission as high school graduates, the high school program should in¬clude English composition and literature, natural science, history and othersocial studies, foreign languages and mathematics. An applicant must have atleast two units of algebra and one unit of plane geometry. The right is reserved

    [16]

  • to reject any applicant whose high school program does not indicate adequatepreparation for college work. The applicant who ranks in the upper third ofhis graduating class will be given first consideration.

    Application for admission should be made at least 60 days in advance of thedate on which one expects to enter and earlier application is advisable, particu¬larly for the fall quarter.

    An advance payment of $50 is required with formal application for admission.Five dollars of this payment is not refundable, but the balance is refunded if thestudent is not admitted or if notice of change of plans is given at least 60 daysbefore the beginning of the quarter for which the applicant has been accepted.Notice of acceptance or rejection will be mailed upon receipt of payment andconsideration of the completed application and transcript. All new students arerequired to report a few days before the beginning of classes for a period of tests,explanations, and conferences concerning the program of studies. This orientationperiod is given in the Academic Calendar.

    REGULATIONS

    Student Conduct—The Dean is charged with responsibility for the administra¬tion of discipline; he has the advice of the faculty and the help of the faculty-student Honor Council (see Student Government and Honor Code). The studentis expected to conform to all specific requirements, to submit to duly constitutedauthority, and in general to conduct himself in accordance with those ideals ofChristian manhood for which the University stands. Evidence of inability orunwillingness to cooperate in the maintenance of these ideals may lead to pro¬bation, to request for withdrawal, or to dismissal.Absences—A student is required to attend all meetings of the classes for whichhe is registered and to meet all other scheduled appointments, including chapelwhen required. Absences are treated as factors in determining progress towardgraduation; unavoidable absences must therefore be explained to the Registrarpromptly and a method agreed upon with the instructor for making up the workmissed.

    Probation—The purpose of probation is to warn the student and to assist himin improving the character of his work. A student is put on probation wheneverit appears that he is failing to reach the minimum standard of work needed forgraduation from the Lower Division. A student on probation is subject to certainrestrictions regarding leaving the campus and engaging in extraclass activities.Students who continue to fail their college work are dropped from the collegerolls.

    Reports—Reports of the student's grades are made to the parents shortly afterthe close of each quarter, and midterm reports also are sent if the student isreceiving unsatisfactory grades. The parents are notified if a student is put onprobation.Withdrawal—A student who for any reason finds it necessary to withdraw at anytime other than the close of a quarter is required to get permission; otherwisea letter of honorable dismissal cannot be granted.

    Transcripts of Record—Transcripts of a student's entire academic and conductrecord are available from the University Recorder, and no partial or incompletestatements of record can be issued as official transcripts. One transcript of recordwill be furnished free, and additional copies will be prepared for $1 each. Noofficial statement of any kind will be issued for students whose records showfinancial indebtedness to the College.

    RequirementsAREAS OF STUDY

    Programs of study at Emory-at-Oxford are planned to offer basic liberal edu¬cation, with sufficient freedom to permit the able student to complete LowerDivision requirements for professional studies. Fields of knowledge in the cur¬riculum are identified as: (1) the Humanities (English language and literature,the arts, and philosophy); (2) Social Studies (history, political science, eco¬nomics, psychology, sociology, Bible, and philosophy); (3) the Natural Sciences(mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology); (4) Foreign Language (French,German, Spanish, Russian, and Latin); (5) Physical Education and Health Edu¬cation; and (6) Air Science (for those in the Air Force Reserve Officers TrainingCorps).

    Courses in Air Science are open only to members of the R.O.T.C. PhysicalEducation is required of all students excepting veterans of armed services, andone hour of academic credit is allowed each quarter for satisfactory work. Thestudent's other courses of study are chosen in conference with the office of theRegistrar according to the requirements for completion of the Lower Division.

    Minimum requirements for graduation are:One course in English (listed below as English 100)Two courses in Humanities (listed below as Humanities 101 and 102)Five courses in Social Studies (Social Studies 101A and B, 102A and B,

    103A and B, 104, which is Bible, and one other which may be economics,psychology, political science, sociology, Europe since Waterloo, Americanhistory, or philosophy)

    One course in Mathematics (listed blow as Mathematics 100)Four courses in Science (which may include one course in advanced mathe¬

    matics and which must include two of the three fields of science—biology,chemistry, physics)

    Three courses in one of the Foreign Languages (French, German, Spanish,Russian, Latin)

    Two additional courses of the student's choice, according to his professionalor other academic intention

    At least three quarters in residence, with at least a C average.Students in the four-year program and the extended program have the above

    [19]

  • requirements for graduation, but several of their studies during the first twoyears are recognized as the equivalent of required courses. This recognitionenables them to elect additional courses. Certificates of equivalency to the com¬pletion of high school are issued to students of the four-year program who com¬plete two years of satisfactory work and to students in the extended programwho complete three quarters of satisfactory work.

    EXEMPTION AND ACCELERATIONIt is sometimes possible for a student, on the basis of transcripts and tests, toexempt one or more of the required courses, such as English, Foreign Language,or Mathematics. In this event, an additional course of the student's choice ismade available to him. If, on the other hand, a student is admitted without ade¬quate preparation for the required courses in Mathematics or English, enroll¬ment for further preparatory work is necessary, and courses listed as Mathemat¬ics 99 and English 99 are offered. These preparatory courses take the place ofelectives, and choice of courses is to that extent eliminated within the minimumrequirements. Acceleration is made possible to students in the Four-Year Pro¬gram as described under "Programs of Study" and in the extended program bythe inclusion of additional courses.

    HOURS OF CREDITThe quantity unit of credit is the quarter hour—one hour of class work or onelaboratory period each week for a term of approximately 12 weeks. The normalquarter's work is 15 hours (three courses) plus Physical Education and, forthose in R.O.T.C., Air Science. Completion of the Lower Division requires 96credit hours, or fifteen hours a quarter, plus six hours' credit in Physical Edu¬cation. For those in R.O.T.C. the requirement is 106 hours. Courses in AirScience allow the student 2^2 hours of credit each quarter. In terms of coursesand hours of credit, the minimum requirements for graduation from Emory-at-Oxford and completion of the Lower Division are as follows:

    Subject Quarter HoursEnglish (Eng. 100) 5Humanities (101 and 102) 10Foreign Language (101, 102, 103) 15Mathematics (100) 5Social Studies (101A, B; 102A, B; 103A, B; 104; one other) ... 25Science (may include one course in Mathematics above 100) ... 20Electives 10Physical Education 6

    GRADES AND QUALITY POINTSThe quantitative requirement for 96 hours of credit is accompanied by a quali¬tative requirement; at least 96 quality points must be attained. The qualitativemeasure is derived by grades received in each course. The grading system con¬sists of the symbols A, B, C, D, and F. The grade of F indicates failure. The

    [20]

  • grade of D indicates quantitative hour credit for the course but no quality points.Quality points for other grades are as follows: for C, one quality point per hour;for B, two quality points per hour; and for A, three quality points per hour. Itshould be noted that a C average is required for a student to make full academicprogress. Grades of D are of no value to a student's record unless they are coun¬terbalanced by a corresponding number of B's.

    SUMMARY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION

    Requirements for completion of the Lower Division and therefore for gradua¬tion from Emory-at-Oxford may be summarized as follows:

    1. Completion of a program of at least 96 hours, including PhysicalEducation.

    2. Attainment of at least 96 quality points.3. A satisfactory score on the Cooperative Sophomore Test which is ad¬

    ministered to all candidates for graduation.4. At least three quarters in residence, with at least a C average.

    Special note: For students taking Air Force R.O.T.C., the requirements are 106quarter hours and the attainment of 106 quality points.

    Although admitted to the Upper Division, no student will be graduated byEmory-at-Oxford until requirements for the Lower Division have been met.
